It was taken on Hill 861A, after the attack by the NVA on 05 Feb 68 .I am on the left with no Helmet. The Marine in the soft cover is Cpl Billy Drexel from Fort Worth Texas. Who was decorated for the fight on 5 Feb 1968, he was a member of my Weapons Platoon and lost both his legs when we moved to Hill 861 at a later date.

I was on that plane when it crashed, returning from 12th USAF hospital in Cam Ranh Bay. All these years it's been in my brain that it was an unpainted, shiny aluminum USAF C-130. That's what I remember from getting on it in Da Nang. I guess three different pictures all showing a camo paint job shows how good my eyesight is. Mike Haight B 1/13 April 07
